How has your experience with Visible Wireless been? I was on post-paid Verizon from 2004-2013 and then I switched to Sprint (eventually T-Mobile) for a much lower monthly bill. After paying off my 13 Pro a few months ago, I decided to give Visible a shot and I am blown away at the performance...

Anyone have experience with Verizon as their customer support and technical support are laughably clueless. I think I have accurately determined that International Roaming on ATT is only active in Canada and Mexico if that helps someone with them as their carrier.

Tried converting my 12 pro to esim last night and kept getting errors. I thought it was an issue with the wifi at first, and then maybe that I was on the iOS 16 beta, but I continue to get errors. I'm on AT&T and my only other suspicion is that it has something to do with being on prepaid rather...

We’ve seen emergency satellite communications coming in the iPhone 14. Apple has reportedly bought 80% of Globalstar‘s capacity and will support future investment and upgrades to Globalstar. Steve Jobs once called the carriers the 7 horsemen though now there are 4 (I think) in the US. Carriers...

Hello! Like what the title said…. I’ve ordered through ATT site for the first time. And I noticed they have a cheaper pricing than apple. I have an iPhone 13 pro that has an ATT next up and was in installment and I opted for an early upgrade and only had to pay $65 and will turn in the 13...

So this no-sim-card-tray thing bothers me. I don't want to get a phone, pay an activation fee, be able to not use it (because of PWM or the other crap that's kept me from every Apple OLED phone), then have to pay my carrier again to go back to my 11. (In the past, I switch the SIM card to try...

I'm posting this because AT&T does not make it easy to report fraudulent accounts. My situation I began receiving emails from AT&T that made it clear an AT&T Wireless account had been set up using my email address. I got everything new subscribers receive, including welcome messages, verify...

An older relative simply needs cellular data in Western U.S., mostly California, for their iPhone 5. No phone calling or texting required through regular phone service. Any recommendations for a carrier/company that provides prepaid data SIM cards that do not require a monthly, recurring fee...

I came back to this forum with an important question before deciding about new phone. Last year I got 12 mini and it’s almost fine with me. Sometimes the battery life isn’t ok for me but I managed since I moved to another country and mostly working in an office and living in the same building...

Can anyone who has done this (activated a BYOD SIM on an old phone and stuck it in a cellular iPad) on Xfinity Mobile please comment on whether this worked and if there were any long term drawbacks? It blows my mind that Xfinity doesn’t support BYOD for iPad. I will either end up using the above...

Hi everyone, I have an iPhone 12 that was purchased unlocked in the USA that I am now using in South Africa and I have encountered an issue with 5G. It seems as if my phone refuses to connect to a local service provider's 5G network (MTN) despite being capable of doing so. Any iPhone 12 that...

I have an iPhone 12 mini and use Consumer Cellular (CC) in the San Francisco Bay Area. I would like to take advantage of 5G. I moved my old SIM card from my iPhone SE and can't get 5G service. I chose AT&T as my "provider" through Consumer Cellular (CC) when I signed up. I can see on AT&T's map...

So I am currently on Verizon's monthly device payment plan with my Xs Max and I want to switch to the Apple upgrade program when the preorders go live for the iPhone 11. Is that possible, if so how?

As we approach a new iPhone cycle, I was wondering if anyone had thoughts to share on practical use of two-line eSIM. Is it working seamlessly? Issues you have? Things that work well? Surprises? Please be sure to include your mobile provider. My focus is US carriers, however I welcome...

Hi, I've been using AT&T for years, but they keep canceling my renewing international add-on packages without notice and then charge more than the value of the (supposedly auto-renewed) monthly packages for a single call. It happened so often, even after talking to customer service multiple...

Curious about (U.S.-based) MVNO’s and people’s firsthand experiences with them (be they positive or negative). I’ve been with VZW for ages, but I’m still curious about whether cheaper rates are really worth it. Most specifically, I’m curious about US Mobile, as they use VZW’s network, but I’d...

Both my wife and I (iPhone XS and 7, both on iOS 12.1) just noticed that we can no longer listen to or change our Greetings in Voicemail section of the phone app. This is something we’ve been able to do without issues in the past. Visual VM is otherwise working fine on both phones. We’ve...

I will be in the States for 3 days next month and plan on visiting an Apple store to check out and purchase one of the three new SIM-free iPhones I’m heading to Europe for 2 weeks for vacation and was thinking of using T-Mobile for the for the entire trip (US/Europe). Once again using my Claro...

I bought a Sim free unlocked iPhone X from Apple last year. 6 months later, I moved to a new apartment with a pathetic cellular connectivity. Tried Tmobile, Xfinity Mobile(uses Verizon network) and AT&T Sim cards and have always had issue getting the 2nd bar in my house, which leads me to...

Hi, I just bought an iPad Pro 12.9” (2nd gen) wireless + cellular from Saudi Arabia where I live. The carrier settings version is 32.0 I tried to update the settings version to the current 32.1 via iTunes (PC) but the message just keeps popping to update & when I press update it says...
